Why RackRenew

Remanufactured OCP Storage. No Compromises.

With an ever-increasing demand for efficient data storage capacity, RackRenew’s remanufactured storage offerings provide a unique balance between affordable, high-density storage and a low carbon footprint.

Expand Capacity Instantly

High-performance, low-power storage you can deploy in days. Not the 12–24 weeks typical of new hardware procurement cycles.

Proven Hyperscale Technology

Engineered by hyperscale teams for the world’s largest data centers. Every node is OCP-approved and remanufactured to original specifications.

High-Density, Low Cost

Up to 11.5 PB per ORv2 rack. New enterprise-grade media or certified refurbished media. You choose the right balance of performance and cost.

Near zero embodied carbon

Remanufactured means the carbon cost of manufacturing is already paid. Every rack you deploy is one that didn’t need to be built from scratch.

Use Cases

Built for Every Storage Challenge

From petabyte-scale cold storage to sub-100ms AI inference, RackRenew storage solutions are configured for your specific workload requirements.

Enterprise Data Storage

SAN and NAS storage arrays for structured and unstructured data, backups and archiving. With RAID, snapshots, and replication for enterprise-grade data protection.

  • Easily add capacity without disrupting operations
  • Multi-server access with clustering and failover
  • Full compatibility with existing storage architectures

Data Lakes

Centralized repositories storing vast amounts of raw data, structured, semi-structured, or unstructured. Ready for analytics, ML training, and IoT data pipelines.

  • Big data analytics at petabyte scale
  • Machine learning training on diverse datasets
  • IoT, log data, and time-series storage

Near-Line & Cold Storage

Cost-effective near-line or cold storage for data that doesn’t need instant availability but must remain retrievable. With tiered architectures that optimize cost across the lifecycle.

  • Backup, archiving, and compliance data
  • Disaster recovery with full dataset copies
  • Large media files: video, image, broadcast archives

Generative AI & LLM Pipelines

High-speed networks, memory architectures, and fast storage are as critical for cost-effective LLM training as the GPU clusters themselves. Storage is where AI performance is won or lost.

  • Slow storage (HDDs): GPUs at 20–30% utilization
  • Fast NVMe: GPUs at 80–90%, training 30–50% faster
  • Chatbot serving: <100ms latency with fast storage vs. 500ms on HDD
Customer Case Study

Brescia’s Data Center Revolution

When A2A set out to launch a new data center at its Lamarmora plant in Brescia, Italy, the answer came through a partnership with Qarnot and RackRenew. Transforming waste server heat into sustainable urban heating for 200,000 residents.

“This first deployment in Italy is a strategic milestone for Qarnot. Made possible through our collaboration with A2A and RackRenew, it gives us the opportunity to address the Italian market’s growing needs for sovereign, energy-efficient cloud computing.”
